1. Oh, yeah, he's doing some furious
spinning today.

Think his voice will hold out? :cry::cry::cry:

We gotta come up with a Hannity cry-o-meter.

Oh boo hoo hoo, they're doing to us what we did
to them for all those years.

How about we take bets on how long it takes him
to do his horrible imitation of Clinton?

7. Odds are low on that one. He feeds the
brainwashed masses. They suck this stuff
up like OxyContin.

(Hell, you and I are listening, and we hate
the guy.)

37. Actually, I Did the Opposite
Last year, I had an Arbitron radio ratings diary for a month. And during that month, I SPECIFICALLY did not listen to Limbaugh OR Hannity.

He is a number one bore.

2. To bad he didn't follow up on it
I'd like to see "Lou Grant" kick Hannity's ass. (I'd like to see anybody kick Hannity's ass).

38. You might think that at 74
Asner might be a little to old to be much of threat to Hannity, but you have to remember what wussy Hannity is.

12. That's the first thing I thought too!
My god these right wing fascist types are sooooo sensitive :)

Personally I think most of them (the ones on TV anyway, the media elite) are whining cowards who probably had their rich parents protecting them all through their childhood from the asskicking they so richly deserve.

10. The groping charges are the "most dispicable, disgusting tactic . . . "
Edited on Mon Oct-06-03 02:22 PM by kaitykaity
I've ever seen in politics," says InHannity.

I guess he hasn't heard about the leaking of
the name of an undercover CIA agent to the
media? Gee. :shrug:

11. It wasn't a threat...
It was nothing more than "playful indescretion".

So what is Hannity complaining about. Also, doesn't the timing of this claim seem a little suspicious? Probably just Hannity playing journalism, so it really shouldn't be taken too serious.

( canned republican responses, did I miss any? )

15. Timing
Arnoldt's campaign time frame was so short that anything going public would appear untimely.

16. True playground bullies
No surprise there.

No surprise either that the gutless Hannity would cry like a little kid when threatened by a 74-year-old man.

Gutless turd, like the rest of the Busheviks.

They only time they are brave is when the fix is in or the odds are uneven (IN THEIR FAVOR, NATCH)

18. anybody got a bio on Hannity? he reminds me of hall monitors..
...in high school that were so eager to catch SOMEBODY doing SOMETHING that he could report to the principal and get a pat on the head.
Of course, those are the guys that, in time, got their due. Not even from the bullies, but say, the jocks, would give the obnoxious hall monitor a wedgy, then pants him and toss him out the locker room door just as the most desireable women were passing by.
Hannity strikes me as one who's had an easy life but still grew up pissed off because no one noticed him except to give him the ass-kicking he so richly deserved.

19. According to Hannity......
Mike Gallagher (another RW asshole talkshow host) ran into Ed Asner at a party last week. When Gallagher mentioned he was a friend of Hannity's, Ed Asner allegedly told him "Well, your friend is next - we're gonna take him down, the way we took Rush down last week."

Yeah, right.......

21. Threatened him? How?
Threatened to talk sense to him?
Threatened to laugh in his face?

Is Hannity afraid that he couldn't take on Asner mano-a-mano?
Maybe he couldn't.

24. I'd have to throttle him
if he had the nerve to be in eyeshot of me. He is an infuriating, race-baiting, lying POS.

Asner is one of the greatest men Hollywood, and this country has ever had. Now that Matthau and Lemmon, and Caroll O'Connor are gone, he is the last of the old-guard pro-labor leftists in Hollywood, and I'll be sad to see him go. Tim Robbins and Woody Harrelson are fine, but there was something much more REAL about those guys. You go, Ed.

26. Ed Asner's On The Phone With Hannity Right Now
He denies saying what Gallagher quoted him as saying.

It all comes down to who you think is more credible: Ed Asner, Mike Gallagher, or Sean Hannity. No contest.

30. Hannity to Asner: "I make you look silly."

Asner back: "Oh, so now you're personally attacking me?"

Slam dunk for Mr. Asner!!!

28. You're all wrong!
Asner won't be 74 until next month! That means that the former star of "Lou Grant" is still a hale and hearty 73 years old, obviously more than a physical match for Hannity the Blowhard.

But somehow, I suspect that a physical confrontation is not what Mr. Asner had in mind. And if it's a battle of wits, well, let's just say that armed with "half" and "nit", Hannity is badly outgunned.

29. Poor Poor Hannity!
Asner: you're acting paranoid sean!

hannity: it sounds to me like you're silencing political discussion! every time I debate you, I make you look silly, because the things you say are silly.

Asner: Well, then you shouldn't have silly people on your show, should you?
